The factors of 1531 are 1, 1531
The HCF of 9032,1531 is 1.
Lets's calculate GCF of 9032,1531
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Now, list down the factors of 9032
:1,2,4,8,1129,2258,4516,9032
Now, list down the factors of 1531
:1,1531
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 9032,1531 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 9032,1531 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 894,973
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 869862
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/869862
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9032/894,1531/973 is 1/869862
The formula of LCM is LCM(a1,a2,a3....,an) = ( a1 × a2 × a3 × .... × an) / GCF(a1,a2,a3....,an) x common factors(if more than 2 numbers have common factors).
We need to calculate greatest common factor of 894,973 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(894,973) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(894,973) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(894,973) = ( 894 × 973 ) / 1
LCM(894,973) = 869862 / 1
LCM(894,973) = 869862
